The rise of cloud computing is driving the development in various fields and becoming one of the hot topics in recent years. To solve the problem of comparing ciphertexts between different users in cloud storage, Public Key Encryption with Equality Test (PKEET) was proposed. In PKEET, a tester can determine whether two ciphertexts encrypted with different public keys contain the same message without decrypting the ciphertexts. However, PKEET only supports exact matching, which may not be practical when two messages have misspellings, formatting differences, or differences in the data itself. Therefore, to support fuzzy matching, in this paper we propose the concept of Public Key Encryption with Fuzzy Matching (PKEFM), which allows to determine whether the edit distance between two encrypted messages is less than a threshold value. PKEFM can be well applied to support fuzzy data comparison in encrypted e-mail systems or encrypted gene testing. We then modify the scheme to provide the de ....
In this article I’m trying to explain the difference/similarities between dynamic programing and divide and conquer approaches based on two examples - binary search and minimum edit distance (Levenshtein distance) ....
